In a piping network system, the volume flow rates (gallon per minute) in four different pipes are given using the following system of equations
-3Q1+2Q2 +5Q3 + 1Q4 15.5
2Q1+2Q2 +1Q3 +0.5Q4 = 13.5
- 2Q1+1Q2 +1Q3 +2Q4=8.5
%3D
4Q1-2Q2+3Q3 +1.5Q4 =9.5
What are the values for Q1, Q2. Q3, and Q4? Identify the correct answer.
